US President Donald Trump had a telephone conversation today with his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin.
The phone call between the two leaders was long awaited.
In a post on the "Social Truth" platform, Trump said, "We discussed Ukraine, the Middle East, Energy, Artificial Intelligence, the power of the dollar, and various other topics."
Trump had signaled for weeks his desire to speak with Putin as he works to resolve the conflict in Ukraine.
"We agreed to work together including visiting each other's nations. We have also agreed that our respective teams will begin negotiations immediately and will begin by calling President Zelensky, of Ukraine, to brief him on the conversation, which I will do now," Trump wrote.
